Problems solved by technology

This collaboration is often difficult and error prone because the collaborators have different skill sets and they approach the problem from different perspectives and use different tools.
An additional challenge is that a business analyst's business experience and technical skills vary from organization to organization, depending on whether the business analyst's experience is from the business or technical side of the org...

Embodiment Construction

[0039]After considering the following description, those skilled in the art will clearly realize that the teachings of the various embodiments of the present invention can be utilized to automate collaboration between a business analyst and a developer. A computer-implemented method, data processing system and computer program product provide an implementation of software. A control flow of a software component is constructed based on a specification model. In various embodiments, the specification model comprises at least one input and at least one requirement referencing the at least one input. At least a partial implementation of the software component is generated based on the control flow and the at least one input and the at least one requirement of the specification model. In some embodiments, the specification model further comprises at least one output, and the at least a partial implementation of the software component is also based on the at least one output.

Abstract

A method, system and computer program product provide an implementation of software. A control flow of a software component is constructed based on a specification model. In various embodiments, the specification model comprises at least one input and at least one requirement referencing the at least one input. At least a partial implementation of the software component is generated based on the control flow and the at least one input and the at least one requirement of the specification model. In some embodiments, the specification model further comprises at least one output, and the at least a partial implementation of the software component is also based on the at least one output.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1.0 Field of the Invention[0002]This invention relates to a collaborative derivation of an interface; and in particular, this invention relates to collaborative derivation of an interface and partial implementation of programming code.[0003]2.0 Description of the Related Art[0004]Business applications are often created as a collaborative effort between a business analyst and a developer. The business analyst is typically most skilled in defining business rules to describe the information to enable and support business decisions, while the developer is typically skilled in efficient ways to implement computations in programming languages, somewhat independently of the business context in which such computations will be used. This collaboration is often difficult and error prone because the collaborators have different skill sets and they approach the problem from different perspectives and use different tools. A business analyst might use a spreadshee...
